Hi all,
I essentially need a second instance of the OS on which I can install various applications for testing purposes and I don't want to mess with my primary install.
Is it legal to dual boot or run a virtual machine with the same license of the OS?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Hi,
I got the Nokia E71 about 3 months ago. This phone seems to have an uncanny ability to suck up dust under the LCD cover.
It is very annoying because I can't find a way to clean it without voiding the warranty.

Hi,
I recently read (on the inquirer i think) that if you have 4GB ram and a 32 bit OS you can allocate the extra RAM (The part your OS can't allocate) as a RAM drive .
Anyone tried this or have any ideas of how to set one up?
Cheers
